Q: How can I pay for parking?
A: Cash and credit cards are accepted at the pay-on-foot stations located on Level 2 and Level 4. You can only pay by credit card at the exit pay station gate, no cash accepted.
Finally they’ve entered the 21st century

Yet the taxis are still archaic as ever and there is no effort to upgrade, update or even fit them with proper card-taking measures. And people still manage to get Ubers instead bc of the convenience.

No, the developer pulled out bc the board tried to strike a deal with them and they got tired of the policies and abandoned the project.

Uber came to CT in 2014 overtake taxis by 2017 and it make no sense Stamford parking garage still doesn’t take card, Apple Pay, Android Pay in 2024.

This could be due that the people in power may not be aware of the taxis issue because no one lets them know. They are in charge and the decision makers, but they are still people. If they are not made aware of something, they will simply not know.

The building between Long Ridge Rd and High Ridge Rd is already built. They are now working in the inside. I thought a Shake Shack was going to be there (maybe its still the case and they haven’t put the sign yet.) I was surprised to see the sign for Starbucks from Cold Spring Rd and at another time from the CVS saw the sign for something else I don’t remember right now.

The parking lot seems to be done. It seems it will be an addition to the CVS parking lot rather than a separate parking lot.

Supposed to be a Frank Pepe's and a Shake Shack. Traffic is going to be brutal when they open.

Banking Circle US, a fintech payments bank, has opened its U.S. headquarters in Stamford. Nice addition to the city.

Weren't there proposals, nearby this specific development, for a Chik-Fil-A? But then it was voted down due to traffic potential issues, I think.

Does anyone know of plans to bring a Chik-Fil-A to Stamford? I'm sure it's only a matter of time they expand to the city. They are all over NYC now.
